I hear the soft clicks of my heels hitting the marble floor as I walk through the door.
The walls were covered with grey and ivory wallpapers and motivational photography with silver frames.
There was a dark brown bookcase lining the entire left-hand wall covered with glass with lighting inside.
There were a grey couch with gold stripes. Indian blanket draped over the arm. Near the couch was a double round coffee table on top sit and chique bottle and couple of glasses.
The carpet was a lighter grey.
There was this big window with a taupe colored curtains, a potted palm at the back showing the view of the city where you could see the sky from the window, delft-blue and cloudless and so bright it looked solid.
I was in love with this office it was mesmerizing.
The far wall has a large fireplace with an antique clock on top. I couldn't stop myself from noticing this exquisite gold modern chandelier light with double ring, it was absolutely magical.
Below reside the Devil by his desk.
He straightened the stuff on his desk, making sure everything was square and properly spaced.
"Good morning , Mr. Devin" i said with confindance walking infront of him.
"Take a seat miss Wilson, shall i call you Bella" he said in his strong voice full of arrogance.
"Morning to you too Sir and you shall not. I prefer miss Wilson" i replied annoyed of his audacity.
Looking straight at his face and that the first time i'm this close to him. Well sober this time.
I've noticed he had tousled brown hair which was gelled back on one side. His eyes were a mesmerising grey, flecks of silvery light performed ballets throughout. His face was strong and defined, his features molded from granite. He had dark eye brows, which sloped downwards in a serious expression. Straight pointy nose. Damn and those soft sharp lips were very attractive and captivating. I wanted to touch it but I decided not to do so. Because what the heck was wrong with me. His strong hands, slightly rough from working.
A prominent sharpe jaw curved gracefully around and the strength of his neck showed in the twining cords of muscle that shaped his entire body, strong arms, bold thighs and calves, a firm chest. He was an Adonis among the other men who each pale in comparison.
I admit he was a hell out of a man but he was just handsome on the outside but inside he was ugly.
"Are you done staring, i don't pay you to dream" he growled
What was he a freaking wolf.
"Excuse me Mr. Devin, but you do not pay me yet, so i think i can dream a little bit more" i replied sarcastically.
"You know what i was dreaming, leaving you in a deserted island where nobody can find you" i said with an evil ginning.
He made his way around his desk and stood by me and girl i was intimidated and scared.
He lean to my level and said "Well baby girl, i will take note to bring you along with me" he replied in a menacing tone and his stupid smirk.
"So Bella, i think Freddie explain you your tasks already right?" he quickly added.
"Yes, she did and its miss Wilson, Sir!" i said annoyed.
"Can you please give me a job so that i can be away from you soon as possible" i said irriated.
He grabbed me by the arm and pushed me against him with both hands against my waist sort of trapping me.
That's the second time he made contact with me but always feel like its the first time he is doing it. I don't know the strange feeling in my belly and the tingling sensation where he was touching me. It's as if an invisible electricity were pulling us. By the look on his face for sure he felt it too.
I was astonished, his minty breath fanning my face.
"Baby girl, you disrepect me one more time you Fired you understand" he said in a low threatening voice me in my ears.
"Maybe, thats what i want Mr. Devil" i said in a low seductive tone.
I put my hands on his shoulder. His shoulder was firm and regid. I tried to kick him there but as if he sensed what I was going to do he move and trapped my leg against his. With all the force left in me, I pushed him he merely nugde a little and find my escape.
"How dare you touch me, i will can the police for sexual harassment" i threaten.
I heard him chuckled, i watched him in disbelief.
"The Devil, nice i like it"he said smirking.
"You know baby girl, the police can't do anything to me I'm too powerful" he said while pouring a glass of cognac.
"Stop calling me that, its miss Wilson and isn't it a bit early for that". I said pointing at his drink.
"Oh trust me baby girl, with you around i need more than a drink" he replied smirking and take a sip.
"Disgusting. Are you not suppose to hate me something like that?" i ask with by eyebrows furrows.
"Oh trust me baby girl i hate you with all my might" he instantly reply.
"The feeling is mutual" i smirk back
"Why do you hate me that much" i suddenly asked while absently stroking my necklace. Which was a habit whenever i got scared or nervous i clunged to it as if it gave me support.
Watching my every movement, hi face turn hard as if remembering something and quickly change the subject and said
"Be ready, its gonna be the longest 2 years of your life and you will be begging me forgiveness for being so rude to me" he said while eyeing me.
"Welcome to hell baby girl!"
